“In it for the Long Haul”



A Book written by John Toomey for workers involved in remote location work, eg. mining, construction, oil and gas, and their families. There are many challenges with this work related to long periods of separation, high incomes, boredom, loneliness and the temptations of spending, gambling and drug use. The rates of suicide and family breakdown are high. Many go into the role with no goals, not plan. This book is designed to help the worker and their family take control of this life and to make it a powerfully good experience for them.
